Thegoalmac can reveals that Gerardo Martino believes there is no bigger game in international football than Brazil vs Argentina.
Do you agree with Mr Martino?For me i think El Classico is the biggest game in the world.
Continue to see what he said.
Former Barcelona coach Martino succeeded Alejandro Sabella as
national team boss following the World Cup and began his tenure with an
impressive 4-2 victory over world champions Germany in Dusseldorf last
month.
The Albiceleste landed in Beijing this week for Saturday’s Gillette
Superclasico de las Americas and Martino is hoping to see more of the
same from his side at the Bird’s Nest Stadium.
“We will try to do what we did against Germany,” he said.
“Brazil won’t change their tactics, although the new coach called up a lot different players.
“Argentina against Brazil is the most important derby between
national teams. It doesn’t matter where the match is held, it’s always
important for the history between us and now also for the players.”
Saturday’s clash will be the first since the Superclasico de las
Americas’ 2011 reincarnation that the trophy will be decided in a single
game with no restriction on those who can take part.
In 2011 and 2012 the match was played over two legs in which only
players currently for clubs in one of the two counties involved were
eligible for selection.
Brazil won the 2011 edition with a 2-0 aggregate score and retained the title the following year by way of a penalty shootout.
